About Us

Our Story
The company was founded in 1996 in Morro d’Oro, in the heart of the Vomano valley. Gennaro Montecchia, the founder, decided to give new life to an old mill. It is the beginning of a story inspired by love for olive oil and enthusiasm for experimenting with production techniques, a technological revolution in the world of high-quality Extra Virgin Oil.
Innovations and awards lead Frantoio Montecchia to establish itself as an international reality, and in 2008, the business moved to its current headquarters. Today, Frantoio Montecchia is a reference point for consumers, restaurateurs, farmers and olive oil enthusiasts, a place to meet, taste and study.
Philosophy
At Frantoio Montecchia, olive oil production is based on in-depth study, experimentation, knowledge of the land and respect for nature. The goal is to have a positive impact on the Extra Virgin culture, guiding farmers and customers to true food awareness.
We work for sustainable development and continuous innovation of production techniques, investing in safe machinery, renewable energy and organic agriculture. Professionalism and passion, so that good olive oil reaches everyone’s table.
